    Darwinism at its finest.
    I will say, the fat kid was never put to sleep.

    Not disputing that rothwell is a peace of **** for this but thats no 13 year old kid.... Thats Preston Lacys fat ass from Jackass crew (Jonny Knoxvil/Bam/Ryan Dunn..ect) He was paid for this and knew he'd b destroyed from the beginning... Rothwell prolly thought that if his stunt got aired he'd get sum notoriety with the main stream.. Instead of him gaining fame, NO ONE even remembers who Preston is in this clip and Rothwell just looks like a ****ing DICK

    ^Lol. No.

    I remember reading Rothwell's side of this somewhere. I wish I could find it. I think it was his first fight, and he had no idea who he would be fighting until he entered the ring. I think he was like 17/18 at the time.

    He was about 18 years old. It was an amateur tournament pretty much open to "anybody who signed up."

    ****in' hell.....I was at this event in 1999, and there was an Oreo convention next door. The fat kid went to the wrong gate and entered the warm up area. He actually thought it was an Oreo eating contest, until Ben Rothwell started beating the crap outta him. ****ing tragic man.....I ****in hate watching this.....okay, that was a total lie, but that would have made a made a hell of a story tho, admit it.

    Actually, after a bit of research - i found a thread on another site, saying it's NOT Preston Lacy from Jackass. Sure they're both fat, but aside from that, it looks nothing like Preston from Jackass. Also, Preston would have been around 30 yrs old when this happened. That kid looks like late teens, early twenties.
    The concensus says it's Anthony "Wildcard" Ferguson, currently 32 (which makes him the right age), 265 pounds, 1 win 15 losses, and yes "Ben Rothwell" is listed as a loss from 2001 on mixedmartialarts.com.

    So in conclusion, I need a ****in life.

    But yeah the ref is Jeremy Horn, and the fat kid is Anthony Ferguson, who nobody knows or probably gives a **** about.

    I'm confused. The fat kid is Nick Bartlett. It's in the thread title.
